The building is composed of five rectangular modules grouped around a central space. Each of these elements has a single rectangular floor plan with a free perimeter that allows for optimal lighting and ventilation of the interior space. These elements are composed of wooden porches that are spaced 1m apart at axes The section of each module is varied by forming inclined planes. The different elements are deployed around the center as a fan, with different inclinations and orientations. The set of planes around the central space make up a topographic roof. The different spaces and their articulation generate multiple spatial situations. Within this framework, the program is developed in five main blocks: 1. Sensitization Filter 2. Multipurpose space (events, presentations) 5. Design and learning laboratory 6. Collective care: Pavilion 3 in the graphic documentation.
The building is configured as a set of pieces that are related to each other through the central space that is constituted as an element shaping the whole. The modules have a rectangular floor plan and a pitched roof that rises from a height of 3.50 meters to 5.30 meters in the overhang area at the end of the roof.
Each module has a transparent form defined by the use of cellular polycarbonate as a closing element of the vertical planes that have different treatments: in some cases it is polycarbonate mounted on metal profiles with high thicknesses to achieve good thermal insulation. In other cases, the polycarbonate in a double layer houses fluorescent lights to provide a differentiated image at night. And, finally, in other cases there is a wooden enclosure with sheep wool and exterior polycarbonate offering the vision of a natural image in those planes.
At the ends of the modules we find a multilayer enclosure type BallomFrame composed of the upright and wooden boards On the outside of this wall a structure that supports chicken wire and perforated aluminum tube containing a vertical gardens as a tube or column throughout its facade is deployed.
Along with this diversity of treatments of the vertical planes, the zinc roof on the inclined planes offers a sober colored finish over its entire surface. The wooden portico structure located every meter is present in the exterior planes and in the slight roof overhangs, generating a continuous vertical rhythm in all the modules that make up the complex.
The different sizes of the five modules, with variations in the facade elements and the turns between them offer a visual richness that generates very different perspectives between them in each of the observation positions. The concept of elevation with a main view is overcome to present a multiplicity of perspectives and superimpositions that generate the wealth of possibilities of the project. A diversity that is present from the outside in the location of the five pieces and that is also especially present in the interior space.
From this central interior area of 176 square meters conceived as a multipurpose space for presentations, activities and events, this space is distributed with a visual and physical continuity. This continuity of spaces poses a direct and interrelated connection of the different actions and programs allowing a transparency and a situated reading of the different components of the MAR.
The ensemble present on the large 3,000 square meter site makes it possible to extend the actions to the public space by proposing strategies in three areas. Some are directly linked to the existing program in the Sea of Recycling. Others are linked to the existing dynamics between the different seas (which are translated into devices such as compost bins for the treatment of organic waste) and others that connect the dynamics of the neighborhood and the territory.
The exterior program proposes the complete urbanization of the plot with the development, on the one hand, of an outdoor pavilion of about 70 square meters forming a multipurpose space for events and storage. This pavilion is articulated as part of a grandstand that allows the development of outdoor activities. Its construction, like the rest of the complex, is characterized by its constructive simplicity in which the metal structure and the polycarbonate enclosure predominate.
Another part of the building is an element built with the logic of the ribs as well as the interior modules. This piece will have a solar panel roof housing around 90 panels of 1.20x1 and making it possible for this building to be zero consumption. At the same time, the space generated by this porticoed space allows the development of outdoor activities.
There is a fence that delimits two spaces linked to the MAR itself: one of them encloses the pergola space and connects it with the warehouse and work area. The other space is linked to the collective care area. The rest of the space is urbanized by proposing a system of squares and public spaces interconnected by paths and equipped with furniture. In this space, at different points, we find devices that are linked to recycling (plastics, organic, paper, bulky, batteries). We also have a recharging point for electric cars (Fotolinera) and bicycle parking. This set is completed with the development of gardens having as a centerpiece of this naturalization of the plot a small park of olive trees.
